Around town…

Sis Tara came to visit Gretchen Staehlin on the island this past weekend....they were pretty happy to see each other.
Now that spring is here, looks like things are picking up – to wit:
Jill in action...
• Jill Urbach (right) reports there’s music in the air on Friday:
Hi Ian! I’m going to be singing with the One More Time Band at the Rumor Mill this Friday, March 25, from 7:30-10:00pm. We’ve been playing there the last Friday of every month and it’s a swinging good time! Plus, this Friday we’ll have Jim Moe join us as a guest singer in the second set. He channels a fabulous Frank Sinatra! Thanks! Jill
• Ran into Aaron last night & says the movies this weekend at the Palace Theatre starting Friday are Hall Pass, Unknown, and Gnomeo & Juliet, not UnGnomeo & Juliet Over the Pass, like I told you before.
• Karaoke at Herb’s on Wednesday nights has continued while Aaron’s been recuperating, with Corey filling in for Aaron….I guess that makes it Corey-oke.
• Don’t miss it – the Middle School’s PTA’s bake sale is Saturday starting at 10am at Marketplace!
• Nancy DeVaux tells me a bunch of people will be there to welcome Paul at the Friday Harbor Airport at 4pm on Thursday:
Sea Shepard is headquartered on San Juan Island....
Paul Watson is flying home to Friday Harbor after successfully ending the Japanese whale hunt this season in the Southern Ocean. It is estimated Sea Shepherd saved the lives of 900 whales. He’s been treated to a hero’s welcome in New Zealand and Australia. Let’s welcome him home to San Juan Island! Bring a sign, ( a marching band?), and a smile to Friday Harbor Airport at 4pm on Thursday!
• Today’s quote is “A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops. My desk is a work station.” Hee hee hee…and it was fun to hear from Chris Teren: “Trains & buses also START at stations! (sorry, I’m a cup-half-full kinda guy!)”
